RE: Extreme Flight 87" Yak 54 - Build & Fly
Another little note about DA...
I sent in my engine for the updates. (Carb block mod and Steel Connecting Rod) I also mentioned that I had the "bump" issue and it didn't seem to put out the same power as my buddies new DA50. They told me on the phone it would take maybe two weeks... I told them to not rush it as my season is over and I was in no hurry.
I sent it in Priority Mail..... 7 days later UPS was at my door with my engine!
Not only that but the "repair list" showed the two updates...
PLUS a new crankshaft and front & middle bearings! ALL at NO COST. Now perhaps the connecting rod had dropped some metal in the engine and that's why they did it. But they just fixed it in ONE WEEK, 2 DAY'ed BACK and didn't charge me a dime.
You can't save enough money on another engine to pay for that peace of mind.
